Domaine Leflaive's 2022 Bienvenues-Bâtard-Montrachet sits just above its legendary neighbour on a steeper slope with shallower soil, a terroir that leans cooler and keeps this Grand Cru Chardonnay taut and mineral-driven. The iron-rich earth toward Montrachet proper adds earthiness and depth without weight, a wine that tastes like its geology: precise, age-worthy, and utterly uncompromising.

Winemaker Notes

This Grand Cru is located just above the Montrachet Grand Cru on the Puligny side. Atop the climat, the slope becomes steeper and the soil more shallow. Further east, closer to the Montrachet, the soil deepens and turns dark red due to the increased presence of iron. The temperatures are slightly cooler than Montrachet because of the higher altitude, and the soils are rich with gravel. Thus, the wines usually show an intense minerality, the sign of the great Chevalier
